Did any of you ladies ever wear Tabu Perfume ?

Tabu was the choice of every Mexican Senorita that ever smiled at a cowboy along the Rio Bravo in my day.

I did wear Tabu when I was about 14, everyone did and it would almost knock you to your knees if you were surrounded by a crowd of Tabu wearers. Can't stand it now. I wore My Sin, by the same maker as Chanel #5, when my girls were growing up. After they became young women, the three of us were shopping in old antique and junk shops and there was an almost empty bottle of My Sin and my younger daughter bought it for $30. She said that's the smell she always associated with her childhood and so did the older one. They don't make My Sin anymore so that was the closest thing she could get. I never even thought about them noticing my perfume but they both sniffed that bottle all the way home. I'm always on the look out for something similar or maybe even a full bottle for my older daughter and so is she. If anyone knows where I can buy some, please let me know.

  2. I used to wear Tabu all the time when I was younger. I have to tell you, my mother and her family are from Uvalde. My big brother was born there, too!

  7. For a very short time, yes. But back then I was a Channel 5 lady. Funny, too, because just a couple years ago I smelled Channel 5 again and said 'MY GOSH…I WORE THAT?'

    Today I prefer lighter scents…more wildflower types.

  9. I never wore Tabu because I was real young when it was a popular cologne. My mom had a bottle of it & I couldn't stand the smell. When she wore Tweed cologne, I loved it & on special occasions, she'd let me wear a little bit of it. I can still smell it. I was an Evening In Paris gal in Jr. High.

  12. I did. I loved Tabu, and have worn it in the last few years. I love the powdery fragrance. It is a favorite of mine, that I had forgotten about. Thanks for the reminder, I'll be buying some next time I need cologne.

  13. I adore Tabu; however, some women do wear it extremely heavy which detract from the aroma in my personal opinion.
